The second-order long waves generated by short wave groups propagating over a step are theoretically investigated. The diffraction of short waves is firstly formulated and the governing equations of second-order long waves are then derived by using a multiple-scale perturbation method. It is observed that free and locked long waves are generated and propagated with different velocities.

Prognostic characteristics of hypothetical tsunamis in the East Sea are further discussed based on numerical simulations using linear long wave theory than the last paper(Choi et al). As for choice of source zones, we used 28 cases based on fault parameters of hypothetical earthquakes and 76 cases based on simple initial surface shapes of tsunamigenic earthquakes selected by the seismic gap theory. As a result, the wave heights along the whole coastline adjacent to the East See of tsunamis due to these hypothetical earthquake are presented. Analyses also lead us to conclude that the selection of geographical zones with low risk of tsunamis can be used as a tool for coastal disaster mitigation planning.

In the United States, a number of ocean outfalls discharge primary treated effluent into deep sea water and contribute for more efficient wastewater treatment. The long multiport diffuser connected by long pipe from a treatment plant discharge wastewater into deep water due to the steep slope of the sea bed. However, Plume discharged from the diffuser can have significant impacts on coastal communities and possibly immediate consequence on public health. Therefore, there have been growing interests about the dynamics of plume in the vicinity of the ocean outfalls. It is expected that the ocean outfall should be considered for more efficient and reliable wastewater treatments as soon as possible around coastal area in South Korea. A number of studies of plume ynamics have used various models to predict plume behavior. However, in many cases, the calculated values of plume behavior are in significantly poor agreement with realistic values. Therefore, in this study, it is recommended that improvements should be made in the application of the plume model to more simulate the actual discharge characteristics and ocean conditions. It should be noted that input parameters in plume models reflect realistic ocean conditions like waves as well as currents. In this study, as one of the new parameters, current and long wave-influenced plume rise and initial dilution have been taken into account by using simple linear wave theory under some specific assumptions for more reliable plume behavior description. Among the improved plume models approved by EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), the RSB(Roberts-Snyder-Baurngartner) and UM(Updated Merge) models were chosen for the calculation of plume behavior, and the variation calculated by both models on the basis of long period wave was compared in terms of plume rise and initial dilution.

We consider the preparation of long finite amplitude nondispersive waves over a step bottom between two regions of finite different depths. Two dimensional motion is assumed. with the wave crests parallel to the step, and irrotational flow in the inviscid fluid is considered. To describe the transformation of finite amplitude waves we use the finite-amplitude shallow-water equations, the conditions of mass flow conservation and pressure continuity at the cut above the step in Riemann's variables. The equations define four families of curves-characteristics on which the values of the Riemann's invariants remain constant and a system of two nonlinear equations that relates the amplitudes of incident reflected and transmitted waves. The system obtained is difficult to analyze in common form. Thus we consider some special cases having practical usage for tsunami waves. The results obtained are compared with the long wave theory and significant nonlinear effects are found even for quite small amplitude waves.

고효율 태양전지에서 후면 반사 방지막은 장파장대(900nm~1200nm) 빛의 내부 반사를 증가시켜 광흡수도를 개선한다. 태양전지 후면에 박형 절연층 구조를 구성함으로써 특정 파장에서 높은 반사도를 얻을 수 있는 Bragg mirror 구조를 이론적으로 계산할 수 있다. Bragg mirror 구조를 이용하여 태양전지의 후면 반사층(Rear reflector layer)을 형성함으로써 태양전지 내부의 광흡수도를 개선할 수 있다. 후면 반사 방지막(Rear anti-reflection coating)으로 사용되는 Al2O3와 SiOxNy 또는 이러한 두 가지 물질의 겹층 구조를 구성하여 장파장대 빛의 반사도 차이에 의한 광흡수도 개선 정도를 광학 시뮬레이션을 통해 계산하였다. 광학 시뮬레이션은 TCAD를 이용하였으며 두 가지 겹층 구조에서 각 반사 방지막의 두께에 따른 단락 전류(Jsc)의 개선 정도, 후면 반사층 두께의 최적화 조건을 계산하였다. 후면 반사방지막을 제외한 기본적인 태양전지 구조는 n-type PERC 구조를 사용하였으며, 후면 반사방지막만의 광학적 특성을 살펴보기 위해 전극은 광학적으로 투명하다고 가정하였다. 반사방지막 두께의 범위는 Al2O3(5-30nm), SiNx(150-300nm), SiOxNy(150-300nm)에서 수행하였으며, 각각 1nm, 2nm 간격으로 진행하였다. Al2O3/SiOxNy 구조에서는 단락 전류가 32.45-32.87mA/cm2 값을 가진다. Al2O3/SiNx 구조에서는 단락 전류가 32.59-32.87mA/cm2 값을 가진다. 결론적으로, 후면 반사방지막의 겹층 구조를 통해 광흡수도를 증가 시킬 수 있으며, TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통하여 입사되는 태양광 스펙트럼에 최적화된 구조를 설계할 수 있다.

Recently, it has been widely recognized that water-front and coastal vegetations may have great value in supporting fisheries, protecting from wave attack, stabilizing the sea bed and maintaining good scenery. Hydrodynamic factors playa major role in the functions of water quality and ecosystems. However, the studies on numerical and analytical process of wave propagation are few and far behind compared to those on the hydrodynamic roles of water-front vegetations. In this study, in order to express wave attenuation into water-front vegetation, a numerical model based on the unsteady mild slope equation is developed. This result is compared with an analytical model for describing the wave attenuation by assumed simple long wave condition. Based on both the analytical and numerical results, the physical properties of the wave attenuation are examined under various wave, geometric and vegetation conditions. Through comparisons between the analytical and numerical results, the effects of the vegetation properties, wave properties and model parameters such as the momentum exchange coefficient have been clarified.

A finite element model is developed for the extended Boussinesq equations that is capable of simulating the dynamics of long and short waves. Galerkin weighted residual method and the introduction of auxiliary variables for 3rd spatial derivative terms in the governing equations are used for the model development. The Adams-Bashforth-Moulton Predictor Corrector scheme is used as a time integration scheme for the extended Boussinesq finite element model so that the truncation error would not produce any non-physical dispersion or dissipation. This developed model is applied to the problems of solitary wave propagation. Predicted results is compared to available analytical solutions and laboratory measurements. A good agreement is observed.

This study investigated the characteristics of spray generated by a liquid coaxial swirl injector used in a combustor of the liquid rocket engine. The linear stability analysis considered long and short wave was introduced in liquid sheet breakup. Through the hydrodynamic analysis the initial liquid sheet thickness spray angle and injection velocity were predicted. To evaluate the effect of turbulence model standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ and RNC $k-{\varepsilon}$ model were applied to numerical calculation and it was known that RNC $k-{\varepsilon}$ model was more applicable to predict spray characteristics. On the basis of this evaluation validation of the developed model was performed with swirl injector installed in LPRE and the predicted results of breakup length, spray angle, and SMD agreed well with experiments qualitatively and quantitatively.

A numerical method to efficiently secure necessary design informations of the hydraulic characteristics of rubble mound breakwater was attempted here. The method combines the exterior wave field with the interior wave field which is formulated incorporating porous media flow inside the breakwaters. An approximate method based on the long wave assumption was used for the exterior wave field while a boundary element method was used for the interior wave field. A hydraulic experiment was also performed to verify the validity of the numerical analysis. The numerical results were compared with experimental data and results from existing formulae. They generally agreed in both reflection and transmission coefficients. The calculated pore pressures also showed a similar pattern with experimental data, even if they gave some significant differences in their values fur some cases. The main cause of such differences can be attributed to the strongly nonlinear wave field occurring on the frontal slope of the breakwater. The direct input of dynamic pressures(measured from hydraulic experiment) into the numerical method was suggested as a promising method to enhance the predictability of pore pressures.
